I just acquired an LF14, and I want to use it as a sub with my SDA 1As

Hi guys, I looked through the first 50 LF14 search results, and didn't see this covered, and I wasn't sure if there were any special considerations involved, but I figured if anybody knows, they hang out here...
The diagram on the back of the LF14 shows using is as a center, or with another as a stereo pair, but since the SDAs have certain amp requirements (common ground that I know of) I figured it would be a good idea to ask some of the way more experienced among us, before doing something I may regret.
Current system is:
Outlaw 950 pre-pro
Carver TFM-6CB amp
SDA 1As
And I'd like to add the LF14 into the mix as a sub
(Not sure if it matters, but the Outlaw didn't have a phono in, so I have an old Kenwood wired to the AUX for my Phono)
~*~*~*~*~BONUS ROUND~*~*~*~*~
I'd be even happier if there was some way to wire it so that I could choose between my Maggies or the SDAs.
I have a Monster 6way switch I could throw in there if it helps.
I also have a couple extra amps in the closet (Rotel RB960BX) that I have been toying with the idea of bridging, and putting one on each Maggie because everyone knows they love power...
Any help is appreciated, And I hope you're all having a great weekend!
